Hey btw do the Serene phones have a Samsung logo on them? I'm sure I've seen one with their logo.

Yep, they have both Samsung and B&O logos on the aluminium hinge - although the Samsung one is hidden when the phone is opened ;-)

Lol has anyone scratched or been tempted to scratch off the Samsung logo - doesn't it kind of detract from buying a B&O phone to have another logo on it?
I mean B&O use other people's stuff from time to time, but they don't normally put the other companies' logo on the outside do they??

I remember on the old forum someone having pics of a brown rough kind of leather pouch i actually liked then alot too....

Yes B&O made their own leather cases for the BS2, in red and brown. I have a brown, it has two pouches - one for the BS2 and the other for SD cards or in my case loose change Still £90 though.

It seems to me that the cases cover up the beauty of B&O products - some of which can be considered to be pieces of modern art.
You got it!
I understand you all, but don't you want to prevent if from being scratched?

Yes Tom, but as long as you don't muddle up your cell phone with keys and coins, then there shouldn't be any reason for any scratches in your pocket. I agree incase it gets dropped, but both the BS2 and Serene are pretty robust.

I just wish Vaja would make a cover for the Serene. there is a real need for some sort of protection as the Serene scratches really easily with that rubberized coating.Come on Vaja what about it?paddy2042

Must admit I went through this thought process when I first got mine - I guess with the price of it I wanted to look after it. But I couldn't face either the look or the price tag of the LV case and I never found an alternative. So I've been using it about a year now, every day, without any kind of case and you know what? It's actually pretty resilient. I've yet to get it scratched or damaged at all, and of course I've been able to enjoy the look and feel of the Serene without having it covered up with a (relatively) ugly or boring case.

I would agree with you Lee. Anyway, what's the point in having a Serene if you can't see it? That's the view I've taken with my BS2 recently. I've had it in a case for 2 years and have no idea why I've been hiding him away for so long.

Where is the News section of beoworld? I didn't find it :-/

It's a mystery. You actually have to leave the forum, and go to www.beoworld.org to find the News.

Would a leather case put extra strain on the flip motor? Just a thought..

Well, a company has to advertise their logo somewhere i suppose! It's like objecting to three stripes up the side of your Adidas trainers!!

As i mentioned, Vaja are very happy to be associated with BeoWorld, and will be (very generously) sending us some products for the prize draw - so we can have a good look at them then!
